Opera Company of thts City, and
Begins an Actian to Recover Lean.
District Attorney Charles q. Winfield
has commenced suit in the Circuit Court
in this County to recover $50. 900 from the
National Opera Company. The affairs of
the Company have filed something of the
space Of the New York dailies of late. 1t
was started in New York with the very
commendable purpose of Introducing the
American Opera into this country, with
the view of breaking up the public taste for
Italian lnasic. Mrs. Jeanette M. Thur
Der, wife of II. K. Thur5er the
millionaire grocer, was the main sup
port Of the company. The scheme
failed, after larse sum of money had
been wasted in it, and Mrs. Thurber, at
the time of the collapse found a balance
of 1872 600 loaned money due her. She
learned that the stage mountings, and
costumes and other property of the COM
pany valued at afterwards of $3.50, COO, had
been brought to this city to escape the
claims of the Company's New York credit
ors, and had been pat on storage in the
Oakland Rink on Oakland avenue. She
determined TO commence q suit here, in
order that her judgment may be lien on
the valuables, and retained Prosecutor
Winfield 10 begin the proceedings at once.
The summons was served on Cherries ID.
Buckley, one Of the directors Of the COM
pany at Paterson few days ago. 1t is re-
| turnable on the 18th of next month. 1t is
doubtful if defence will be attempted.
The goods have not been attached be-
cause the National Opera Company is in
corporated under the laws of this State.

A sixteen year old boy sat 10 Judge
Crossman's Court on Oakland avenue,
Friday night, anxiously waiting for the ar
rival of the Judge. The boy was uissEably
dressed in torn and dirty clothes, and At

tramp. He had an air of refinement about
him. however, which showed that he was
no tramp. He had dark hair and eyes
and delicate and refined features. When
the Judge arrived the boy said he was Ban

his time on the river fishing and the neigh

RuctiOn ON Newark Avenue over q
Beer sellers Sign-An Excitement that
may Result in Putting Down all the
Sheds on One of the Business Blocks.
There is considerable talk among the
merchants who are located on the north
side of Newark avenue between Warren
and Henderson streets in regard to the
sign and sheds which disfgure that block.
A short time since Messrs. Foley & Griffin
opened saloon on the block, next door to
Olmstead's dry goods store and at the
time they procured from the Board Of
Aldermen, permit to extend sign across
the sidewalk from the building to the
curb. Since the placing Of the sligo, the busi-
ness men now in the vicinity have started a
scheme to abolish all the signs and sheds
on the block. A petition is being gotten
up and circulated for that purpose. It is
signed by number of the business mea
on the north side of the street. When l,
scheme reached the ears of Foley u
Griffin they got the idea that it was aime1
at their new sign only and none of the
others.

make an attack on us, said Mr..
Foley last night, "for we keep
as respectable place as there
Is on the street, but it looks to me as if
they are determined to try and compel us
to take down the sign. At any rate we
have permit from the Bosrd, and here it

he continued, 'that one or two OF the gen.

One of the clerks at Olmstead & Co.'s
said that there was no reference pers 1aally
to the above firm, but that he was making
the effort to abolish the signs, because he
considered them as unsightly and no help
to business.
Mr.. Loughlin, of c. p Friend & Co., said
that he was in favor of clearing olt the
signs if the others would do the same, and
yet he makes considerable use Of them.

Herman. s'The fact is they are of no use
except to make good plac for loungers

unusual happens, and make it unpleasant
for respectable ladies to pass. The sheds

Nearly all those who have sheds in front
of their stores have signed the petition in
favor of the abolition of the nuisance.
Mr.. Clark, who keeps hardware store

plans. He thinks that if the she'd in front
of his store was taken down it would ba

one. If he loses his shed he cannot put
i out his goods on a wet day, as they would
be damaged, and he thinks the loss of the
sheds would drige the trade in the end to
the other side o. the street.
Mr.. Metzler, manager of the Boston One
Price Clothing House, said that he does
not object to the signs remaining if they
are high enough; if not. then he obi scts.
Charles S. Furst is decidedly in favor of
their removal. He considers them no good.

opinion.
